Chapter: CH.92 - Rebecca's DemiseREBECCA's POV(PRESENT TIMES)AS SOON AS I hit the bed, I cried my heart out. Marciella had Ibarra inside her palm in high school, and it broke me even more knowing that she still controls him. And when he said…"It's not as if I can remove her from my life."That made me understand where I was standing. If I attempt to enter Ibarra's life, then I would have to face that devil again… And I knew I could no longer bear to be near her. Who knows how twisted she became after all these years? I cannot withstand another emotional death.Like what happened years ago.********** Flashback (After the Prom) ************"She's here again." I heard someone whisper but I ignored them. Yet they were right. I'm indeed standing here again – on the side of the school, under this blazing heat, not minding if I looked like a melting candle or even if my skin burned. Honestly, I don't care. When Carlie secretly came here the other day, she asked me to wait at the same spot where I am standing and said

Chapter: CH.91 - The Night of the PromIBBARA’S POV(PROM NIGHT)“TRY ME. LOVER BOY.” Marciella dared as she flashed her phone in front of me and waved it. I was able to see Rebecca on the screen, but she meticulously hid the part where she said was exposed.That immediately fired anger inside me.I grunted in fury and shifted to tackle her but all of a sudden, a bunch of men in suit stopped me and held my arms with great force. I was growling while trying to escape from them to attack Marciella, but they were too strong.“Damn you, Marciella! I let all of your mischief slide but never this.” I glared at her with pure resentment.With all the hatred I felt, she even dared to show a satisfied smile on her lips. She walked closer and leaned. “This wouldn’t happen if you decided to become a good boy and follow me.”“What is this with your obsession of being followed?! Of being in control?! I’m so tired of being your tool, as well as dad’s!”She pinched me by the chin and pulled me close – enough to see despise in her eyes. “B

Chapter: CH.90 - The WhysREBECCA’s POV(PRESENT TIMES)I looked at Ibarra with sad eyes – almost tearing up as I remembered that scene. The pain I thought I buried once again surfaced. But despite this twinge in my heart, I knew deep down I had to face it, or I won’t ever get over this.My lips parted. I tried to speak but my lips quivered. I pursed them and looked away as I composed myself. When I finally got my courage back, I asked, even with a trembling voice and blurry vision.“Why did you leave?” My voice came out small and shaky… just like how I am now. “If you didn’t have plans of staying, then why did you have to sweep my heart like that?”Ibarra stretched his arm and cupped my cheek. Our eyes met and for the first time I saw his real feelings through them. No pretentions. No walls. It made me sob all of a sudden, as if his emotions flowed through me without even saying a word.I clutched the hem of his shirt and continued crying… and he let me. Like he was giving me the permission to express his sup

Chapter: CH.89 - PromposalREBECCA’s POV(CONTINUATION OF THE FLASHBACK)“Why is it that you look so pissed, Rebecca?” Hera sat on my armchair and casually placed her arm around my shoulder. “Your neck’s going to break watching them outside.”Them.Yes, them, as in Ibarra and the girls who have been asking him to be their partner on the prom day. It was our free time when suddenly number of girls walked inside our classroom and asked for Ibarra’s hand. Jeremy was annoyed so he asked them to do it outside. I thought Ibarra would stay behind but to my surprise, he went outside with them.That irritated me even more. Here I thought he was serious about asking me out to prom and yet, he’s surrounded by girls right now.“Didn’t you mention he asked you to prom?” Ginny, who was busy reading her book, suddenly asked.“Which she declined just to remind you.” It was Mira. It was also their class’s free time, so she went to our room to chat.“Why did you say no then?” Hera asked, teasing. She even poked my side and gave

Chapter: CH.88 - Unravelling the PastREBECCA’s POV(PRESENT TIMES)THIS IS IT REBECCA…This is it indeed. I took another breath as I tried to calm myself. I couldn’t help but walk back and forth as I anxiously waited for him inside the vacant Science laboratory. I asked the staff to tell Ibarra to meet me here – with no clue if he would even be present to observe the taping today. But I had faith… and well yeah, I was too embarrassed and nervous to ask him myself.Talking to Heiji cleared my mind. Not just it but also my heart. I’ve always known what I wanted but I was too afraid to take action. There was too much to think about, a lot to consider. But I’m done sorting things out. I’m done letting my fear conquer me as well as considering the feelings of others before mine.So now, I will once again be brave and tell Ibarra that I—“Rebecca, you called for me?”My feet automatically shifted to face the door as I took one last breath before nodding. “Y-Yes. I did.”My eyes laid on him. He looked hesitant, more like… carefu

Chapter: CH.87 - Heiji's HeartREBECCA’s POV(PRESENT TIME)“YOU KNOW WHAT…”My body jolted in surprise – eyes wide when I gazed at Heiji who just sat beside me. We were sitting on the edge of the stage. He was looking far ahead of us, voice calm but mixed with slight pain. I swallowed to remove the air blocking my throat. I thought everyone left already so I went there to think.“You’re a great hide and seek player. I couldn’t catch you for days, and finally today…” He finally looked at me, and I was immediately rained with his emotions.Pain, love, but it was also coated with understanding.“Today I finally found you…” He added with a soft voice. “Don’t worry, I’m just here to talk.”I felt guilty.I’ve been avoiding him and Ibarra for the past few days because I don’t really know what to tell them. Whenever I was alone, especially at home, my mind would replay scenes from the past and little by little I would get the meaning of their silent stares, that double meaning battle between him and Ibarra and I would oft

Chapter: Epilogue“I, CALEB ROSS, TAKE thee, Sunrise Dawn Zabel, as my lawfully wedded wife. Whatever may come our way, I promise to take care of you, protect you and to love you till I drew my last breath. God gave you to me when I almost believe that I will end up alone in this world. He gave me a reason to hold onto love, he gave me so much reason to love you. Some of it didn’t really make sense at first. I never asked God to give me a woman who do awesome lap dance! But then you came.”I chuckled even though I was crying so hard. With Caleb staring at me like this, and while hearing him say all of this, it was melting my heart.“I never thought this day would come… When I’d be excited to come home because I know, you and Sunny are there waiting for me. I love you more than anything else.” He kissed the back of my hand and I felt his lips trembling. He must have been trying so hard to stop himself

I am so grateful that I have them in my life.I never really thought that someone like her will come into my life.

There were times when my knees suddenly wobble, but thank God there's always someone there to catch me or assist me to sit down.Well, I'm happy that this was about to end. And I'm excited to meet our baby.My brows furrowed when I went inside the house. It was silent but I saw shoes outside."Cass?" I called out but no one answered.Where the hell is he?I suddenly noticed that Dusk's room door was slightly opened. Whenever Cass visited us, he always used that room so I thought he was just changing but I felt something different this time.

Chapter: The Premiere Night"LOVE, DO I LOOK okay?" I asked and glanced at Caleb with a half-smile on my lips. My seven months baby bump was calling the attention of whoever looked at me.I was wearing a white flowy gown with a glittery gold belt. Don't worry, it's just actually a garter so it wouldn’t hurt my baby Sunny. My dress looks like the one being worn by Greek Goddesses - but, the maternity version. It has a plunging neckline with extra silky cloth on the shoulders. I had a jacket ready in case I won’t be able to handle the coldness inside the cinema.I had my hair bun up, decorated with white and gold flower pins. I curled some of my hair and let it loose.Caleb didn't react so I felt worried."What? Too much?" I checked myself again in front of the mirror.He stood up and went behind me. I looked at him through his reflection and saw him smirk. His hands glided from m

She's not a trained actress so she needed help with the script, emotion and all. It just so happened that when we were photographed, we were in character."“In character…” Chibi had a sly smile on her face. “Then to confirm, you were already acting before going inside the apartment? Didn’t it occurred to you that some paparazzi might find that useful for a scoop?”“It did occur. But it was too late for me to realize it.”In character my ass!
